I'm deciding to buy Koaloha or Kiwaya KTS soprano. Please let me know who have tried both or any suggestions? They have almost the same price. thanks

Koaloha bright and loud, better resale. Kiwaya more bass, deeper, more subdued, better built. Longneck? Get a concert.

Agreed. Just a few dollars more, and a whole lot more versatility. Better sound too, IMHO.

koaloha if you like the bright chimey bell sound, great warranty in the business , but you have to try it in person to find a non buzzing one.
